Comprehensive Center clients are
satisfied with the quality, usefulness,
and relevance of services provided.
Measure 2: The extent to which
Comprehensive Centers provide services
and products to a wide range of
recipients.
Measure 3: The extent to which
Comprehensive Centers demonstrate
that capacity-building services were
implemented as intended.
Measure 4: The extent to which
Comprehensive Centers demonstrate
recipient outcomes were met.
6. Continuation Awards: In making a
continuation award under 34 CFR
75.253, the Secretary considers, among
other things, whether a grantee has
made substantial progress in achieving
the goals and objectives of the project;
whether the grantee has expended funds
in a manner that is consistent with its
approved application and budget; and,
if the Secretary has established
performance measurement
requirements, whether the grantee has
made substantial progress in achieving
the performance targets in the grantee’s
approved application.

surveys to the 2023–24 National
Teacher and Principal Survey (NTPS)
the 2024–25 Teacher Follow-up Survey
(TFS) and the 2024–25 Principal
Follow-up Survey (PFS). The 2024–25
TFS is a one year follow-up of a
subsample of teachers who responded to
the 2023–24 NTPS, and the 2024–25
PFS is a one year follow-up of
principals who responded to the 2023–
24 NTPS. The TFS and PFS are
conducted by the National Center for
Education Statistics (NCES), of the
Institute of Education Sciences (IES),
within the U.S. Department of
Education (ED).
The 2024–25 TFS and 2024–25 PFS,
like earlier TFS and PFS collections,
will measure the one year attrition rates
of teachers and principals, respectively,
who leave the profession and will
permit comparisons of stayers, movers,
and leavers to fulfill the legislative
mandate for NCES to report on the
condition of education in the United
States. Stayers are teachers or principals
who remain in the same school between
the NTPS year of data collection and the
follow-up year. Movers are teachers or
principals who stay in the profession
but change schools between the NTPS
year and the follow-up year. Leavers are
NTPS respondents who leave the
teaching or principal profession
between the NTPS year and the followup year.
The 2024–25 TFS analysis file will
include TFS data in addition to data
collected in the 2023–24 NTPS on
teacher characteristics, qualifications,
perceptions of the school environment
and the teaching profession, and a host
of other topics. Prior TFS data have
played an important role in improving
the understanding of the conditions that
affect the balance between teacher
attrition and retention. The NTPS and
TFS provide national data on turnover
in the teacher workforce, including rates
of attrition from teaching, sources and
characteristics of newly hired teachers,
and characteristics and destinations of
leavers. These data help shift the debate
from the issue of teacher quantity to
teacher quality; that is, from a focus on
teacher shortages measured only in
terms of the number of teaching
positions left vacant to the
qualifications and years of experience of
teachers who stay in the classroom
versus those who leave the profession.
The cross-sectional repeated design of
the TFS allows the analysis of trends
related to these topics.
The 2024–25 PFS analysis file will
include PFS data in addition to data on
principal characteristics, qualifications,
and perceptions of the school
environment from data collected in the
VerDate Sep<11>2014
21:33 May 10, 2024
Jkt 262001
2023–24 NTPS. Together, the NTPS and
PFS will provide national data on
turnover in the principal workforce,
including rates of attrition from
principalship, sources and
characteristics of newly hired
principals, characteristics and
destinations of leavers, and due to the
cross-sectional repeated design of the
PFS, analyses of trends related to these
topics.
This clearance request is to conduct
both 2024–25 NTPS follow-up surveys
(TFS and PFS), including all
recruitment and data collection
activities. This request seeks
authorization for the 2024–25 TFS and
2024–25 PFS under the TFS single OMB
number (OMB #1850–0617).
Following a 60-day public comment
period, this submission will now
undergo a 30-day public comment
period. This submission includes

methods), and Part C (item justification);
